Progress in Artificial Intelligence — IBERAMIA 98: 6th by Héctor Geffner (auth.), Helder Coelho (eds.)

By Héctor Geffner (auth.), Helder Coelho (eds.)

When in October 1996 in Cholula (Puebla, Mexico), I took cost of organizing the scienti?c software of the following Ibero-American Congress on Arti?cial Intel- gence (IBERAMIA ninety eight) I wager on a few principles. First, I followed the spirit of the Portuguese adventurers to get the 6th Congress on a really foreign song. on the way to reach this target i wanted to persuade every body that the Ibero- American AI neighborhood had greater through the years and attained a good point in what matters contributors. moment, I introduced my colleagues beside me in order that we have been in a position to gather su?cient first-class papers with out destroying the pioneering spirit of these who ?rst inaugurated the Congress. Getting jointly to ?nd out what's in development within the significant area during which Latin languages (P- tuguese and Spanish) are spoken, attracting others to switch principles with us, and by way of doing this advancing AI commonly, is a dicy untertaking. This ebook is the outcome, and it units a brand new average to be mentioned by means of we all. IBERAMIA used to be demonstrated in 1988 (Barcelona) through 3 Ibero-American AI institutions (AEPIA from Spain, SMIA from Mexico, and APPIA from Por- gal), after a ?rst assembly in Morelia (Mexico) in 1986 of SMIA and AEPIA.

Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics IX: Selected Contributions of the Ninth International Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics

Robotics is on the cusp of dramatic transformation. more and more advanced robots with exceptional autonomy are discovering new functions, from scientific surgical procedure, to building, to domestic companies. by contrast heritage, the algorithmic foundations of robotics have gotten extra the most important than ever, to be able to construct robots which are quickly, secure, trustworthy, and adaptive.

Evolutionary Computing: AISB Workshop Sheffield, UK, April 3–4, 1995 Selected Papers

This quantity is predicated at the Workshop on Evolutionary Computing held in Sheffield, U. ok. , in April 1995 below the sponsorship of the Society for the examine of man-made Intelligence and Simulation of habit (AISB). The 18 complete papers provided have been chosen in the course of a post-workshop refereeing assembly and selected from 32 submissions for the workshop.

Personal Wireless Communications: IFIP-TC6 8th International Conference, PWC 2003, Venice, Italy, September 23-25, 2003. Proceedings

This e-book constitutes the refereed lawsuits of the IFIP-TC6 8th - ternational convention on own instant Communications, PWC 2003. PWC 2003 is the ? agship convention of the IFIP operating team 6. eight, cellular and instant Communications, and is the optimal foreign discussion board for discussions among researchers, practitioners, and scholars drawn to the symbiosis of cellular computing and instant networks.

Sample text

However the effectiveness of a social function is independent of the agents' understanding of this function of their behavior. In fact: a) the function can rise and maintain itself without the awareness of the agents; b) if the agents intend the results of their behavior, these would no longer be "social functions" of their behavior but just "intentions" [Els82]. I accept Elster's crucial objection to classical functional notions, but I think that it is possible to reconcile intentional and functional behavior.

Crossover and mutation), so as to traverse a trajectory in “gene space” which induces a trajectory in design space via the instantiation function. Whether some sort of evaluation function or niche pressure can cause the traversal to occur is a separate question [10]. E-trajectories can exist which our algorithms never find. 7 Evolution of Human-Like Architectures We have argued in [14] and elsewhere (contra Dennett’s “intentional stance”) that many familiar mental concepts presuppose an information processing architecture.
